Terra, I think you're right, I think I did use a standard expert profile in NCS Expert. :blushing
OK, I know this is kind of an old thread but I'm having a heck of a time getting the socket to go into the DSC plug. I CANNOT get it to go in and I have no idea why. I got the correct socket - I verified on real oem. I tried it with the little pop-up locking thing facing out and facing in. I'm not sure which one is right. Either way, it won't go into place and click. Anyone know?
Not sure you will see this or not since its been a while but im curious how you check the part# of dsc module to see if it came on a TPMS car or not?'are you using realoem?
i have a module from a parts car and it has the # 6 765 454 but i cant see the coding index of it since the car is not able to talk to it and I dont have a bench setup for DSC modules yet.
I would love to fire this discussion back up from some of the information goes back nearly 6 years. I am entertaining the retrofit and started my research and reading and all the information I find is setting the parameters to active in NCS Expert. However, has anyone used BMW Scanner 1.4 for RDC settings for the IKE and more to the point, can you reset the warning from within the RDC settings window. I have ordered the console reset switch but again, there seems to be confusion on what MK60 modules allow for resetting the light. Mine is a 2/2002 non-m, non-zhp MK60 if it matters.

So went ahead today and coded everything in and I am waiting on my RPA button console panel so no wiring done yet.
IKE Index C06
- Tire Pressure Control System (RDKS)~RDKS~aktiv / (nicht_aktiv)
- Can-Bus Tire Pressure Control (RDC)~CAN_RDC~aktiv / (nicht_aktiv)
- Tire Pressure Control System (RDKS) Warning Gong~AKUSTIK_RDKS~aktiv / (nicht_aktiv)
- Output Device for tire pressure control system (rdks) warning~WARN_MEDIUM_RDKS~gong / (piezo)
MK60 Index C04
- Tire Pressure Control System (RDKS)~REIFENDRUCKWARNSYSTEM~aktiv / (nicht_aktiv)
- Added FA code $251 to the VO
- Reset RPA in INPA
First impressions:
Turn ignition on, TPMS lights yellow, then turns red, then goes out. 3 seconds later the TPMS lights yellow again. Stays yellow for 10 additional seconds and then goes out. I took it out for a 20 minute test drive and seems to work perfectly, no light at all. So from all my reading and research on this retrofit from this forum and others, I have not seen anyone with the same light sequence as mine nor has anyone posted about any error messages. Just wondering if anyone else has ever read or seen anything like what mine is doing?
Hooked up BMW Scanner 1.4 and read the error on ABS showing RPA Button missing.

Hi Overboost,
i did that modification, but my button doesn't work since i have a non-ZHP DSC MK60. Maybe you got lucky that yours will work even if you don't have a ZHP E46 version, but in most of the case, the logic works, but the reset not. If you do have a fault because your button isn't present, i would assume that it will work in your case. The sequence is probably due to the absence of the button and the error you see in BMW Scanner.
Well to update my post, I think the 10 second second yellow icon is letting me know it isn't happy. I dropped the left rear to 15 PSI and drove it nearly 5 miles with no warning popping up on the dash. It would be safe to say it is not functioning properly. I could visibly see the low tire and a <50% ratio to the other 3. What I find odd is the light should remain on if the system is inoperative from my reading so I am a little puzzled. Here is a video of the key on sequence. Notice the initial yellow/red/off and then yellow for an additional 10 seconds.
